What's great about it: Wireless router friendly
"I have bought uniden phones in the past, and had no issues. I bought a VTEC phone b/c it was on sale, and I needed another phone with more features. I had to take the VTEC back b/c it was an annoying echo when I talked. I think the phone had problems with my wireless router. So, I returned the VTEC and stuck with what I know (UNIDEN). I love this phone. I have only had for a day now, and it has been great. It's slim and nice looking. I love the ability to change the ring tones for a particular caller. it reminds me of working like a cell phone. The most important part for me was the sound quality and the ability to not interfer with my wireless router. After that experience, I don't think that I will buy any other phone except UNIDEN."

What's great about it: Sound quality, ergonomic handsets What's not so great: No negative features I can find.
"We bought a set of these to go with our MagicJack - the results have been amazing. The connection quality is like that of a high-quality wired analog phone.
They're secure, they don't share frequencies with other devices such as wireless routers, and they are easy to set up and use.
They have built-in directories, so you can program in all your friends' and family members' phone numbers, and look them up easily.
Great product! I have recommended these to my parents."

What's great about it: Excellent sound quality What's not so great: No problems so far
"I've owned this phone system for a month and so far am very pleased with it. The sound quality is excellent, the displays are easy to read, and the system has other useful features. It works as an intercom, which is great for our big house. Transferring calls to another phone is easy. I like the speakerphone feature. Integrating with Comcast digital voice was seamless. Length of talk time is a useful display. Glad I bought this phone."

"I have owned GE, Uniden, Panasonic, AT&T, Vtech and a number of other models from the outdated 49Mhz to the 5.8GHz range and now DECT 6.0. I had a set of Uniden TRU8860 5.8GHz which were some of the best I had owned, except they did have range drops and often failed around my Wi-Fi office technology. I thought the review on the Panasonic KX-TG9334T set was persuasive enough to give them a try. I concluded I have a newer Panasonic KY-FPG391 5.8GHz that has performed well and there would be little risk. However, after setup, I knew I had made a poor choice. If you have never owned recent Uniden technology, I suppose Panasonics would be pie in the sky perfect as some reviews have indicated. However, for me as an aficionado of phone technology, I was left sorely frustrated.
I packed the Panasonics KX-TG9334T back in the box after noting a long list of problems found under that product and returned it. I proceeded to purchase the back-ordered Uniden 3080-3 DECT 6.0 which from what I read is an immense upgrade over the TRU8860 series. Certainly a visual feast.
I took delivery of the Uniden 3080-3 DECT, and WOW is all I can say. Nothing on the market compares! Perfect in every way. Sleek design, features, graphics, and sound. Have vision problems? No issue with this phone, BIG easy-to-read display. I do have a little loss of hearing, again no problem, these units have great volume in handset and especially through the 2.5mm headset out jack. The Panasonics had no volume at all with a headset.
There are reviews in which people complained about no speed dial, they do not understand the way phone technology has changed, effecting all manufacturers. The Uniden 3080 can store a 50-station shared phonebook, that once entered in one handset is available on all handsets. Simply hit the first letter of the name and the green button and it dials. This is the ultimate speed dial, works wonderfully. Plus you can assign a number of custom rings to each number, so when a call comes in from a person in your phone book, you know who it is by the ring.
I can understand the complaint about the LCD not lighting up when the Uniden 3080 phone rings. This is the only personal preference I would change, however I simply turned the LCD contrast all the way up and chose the yellow comb wallpaper and can see the caller ID perfectly on the cradle. The thinking behind this design is that a person will pick up the handset to review the caller ID. Once you pick-up the phone off the base, the LCD does light up. I did send a notice to Uniden about changing this feature.
The volume is very good compared to anything Panasonic makes and equal to my previous TRU8860. Unless a person is deaf and requires an assisted hearing amplifier, the volume is exceptional from both the handset and a 2.5mm headset.
Another review below said this Uniden series is not expandable. Actually, it is expandable, up to 6 handsets which I have functioning just fine. However, if you buy only the 3080, it is not expandable. Only the 3080-2 and 3080-3 are designed to expand. Therefore if you think you want more than 1 handset, make sure you know the facts.
I do not have any hissing, static, or buzzing with this system. There is a rare but occasional hollow echo, but nothing that detracts from its use or otherwise advanced design. If there are any disconnect issues with this series, it is an isolated defect with a problem unit, whereas I have used my set all over my one acre property without one drop or failure.
Take it from a phone perfectionist, carefully consider the Uniden 3080 and its immense offerings first. Yes, they cost a bit more, but you will be very happy and your visitors will marvel at the mere ergonomic site of them."

What's great about it: Great styling. Great features. Intuitive Menu What's not so great: BIG problems with dropping calls.
"Read around about this. We trusted the Uniden brand and bought these without research. Very very disappointing. I won't restate all the features - the website does that just fine. What they don't tell you is that there is a long history of problems with this phone. After a couple months, they begin to say "out of range" when you're standing next to the phone. You can't leave the house. Then they start having problems DURING the call. You can hear them, but they can't hear you. That's if they pickup the call whatsoever. We tested our phone line and switched back to the old Panasonics that were in the yard-sale pile. Now the Unidens are in the "return" pile and the Panasonics are back in use. We were terribly disappointed."
